Abundantly Charged

By: Dr. Grant A. Chandler & Jill E. Lewis
  • Summary

  • As we begin to think about life on the other side of a global pandemic, we realize that everything in life is forever changed. We are all in the midst of creating new routines in all aspects of our lives, from how we shop, to how we socialize, to how we travel, and spend our free time. We are contemplating new ways to think about how we integrate work and home, and even how we educate our children. We’ve learned… (1) our children cannot and should not be measured on high-stakes tests alone; (2) there are multiple ways to connect with our students and we need to move away from a one-size fits all approach to teaching and learning; (3) we need to engage our students in pedagogy and experiences that respect each student’s human desire to learn; and (4) that the cultivation of curiosity and wonder in our curriculum and in our instruction invites each of our students to experience profound relevance and connection to the people and the world around them. Join us as we mix in-depth conversations and interviews exploring how to cultivate wonder and curiosity in Abundantly Charged classrooms.

  • Time: Like Sand in the Hour Glass
    Feb 21 2023

    Time seems to be the variable that we often hear about. I could do this is if I only had the time. I don’t have enough time. I would love to do that but wow, the time. Time, Time, Time.

    We may not have any control over how much time we have but we have almost total control over how we use it.

    Our paradigm shifts this season all take time. It takes time to cultivate curiosity and wonder. We touched on this paradigm shift last week. We thought it was so important, we wanted to devote an entire episode to this issue of time.

  • The Power of Experience
    Feb 14 2023

    This paradigm shift is one that we often shy away from because of the time it takes for students to move through the process at a pace adults want. When students have a powerful, authentic experience vs simply and only thinking about the experience, they approach curiosity and wonder differently.
